[LDM #BVW-603010]: LDM error when running build

Reena,

Yeah. Sorry about that. We're not RPM experts and we haven't worked-out
a system for generating binary distributions in all the possible formats.

I suggest you build and install from the source distribution. It's more
up-to-date anyway. Instructions can be found at

     <http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/ldm/ldm-current/basics/index.html>

under "Installing, Configuring, and Activating the LDM System".
